Wicks Announces “Happy Hour”

Wicks Aircraft Supply has created a “happy hour,” but not for selling drinks. Instead, the company is offering an opportunity for customers to take advantage of a discount. Anyone calling in an order on Thursday afternoons between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. (Central Time) will be eligible for a 10% discount on all discountable items including most aircraft construction materials, hardware, finishing materials and tools.

Wicks Aircraft Supply specializes in assisting homebuilders and aircraft restorers with a start-to-finish line of materials. Phone orders may be placed by calling 800/221-9425; overseas customers call 1-618/654-7447. An online catalog is available here.
